    Great photos, Toni, and you were probably one of the few visitors who could identify each and every plant!

    There was one other lady I heard naming them off for a friend, but most everyone just called them pretty flowers.

    We spend 3+ hours out there, including having lunch at the cafe and checking out the souvenir shop where they still sell the gardening hat like I bought there in 2003. Except for some fading on the band and stampede strap the hat is in perfect condition still.

    I have almost 50 more photos to post but didn't want to overload this one topic.
